A PRWeek Award is not easy to win, nor should it be. It is the highest accolade in the public relations industry, given each year to the best corporate, nonprofit, agency, and education teams, and the work that they produce. There are only 33 trophies awarded every year, and each one counts. A PRWeek Award is a unique symbol of achievement and leadership, and immediately sets the winner apart from all others. There is only one way to win a PRWeek Award - you have to enter.

Our judges comprise top professionals from agency, corporate, nonprofit, education, and government ranks. These top practitioners come together voluntarily, donating their valuable time to assess each entry in detail. We are fortunate to have such a passionate community of judges committed to this task, and this year they are lead by Sally Susman, SVP, External Affairs and Worldwide Communications of Pfizer, who has agreed to serve as our chairman.

The PRWeek Awards 2010 presentation will take place March 11, 2010 in New York City. Neither the Awards finalists nor the judges know which companies and individuals will take away the top honors.

Good luck with your entries. I look forward to seeing you in New York for this outstanding celebration of a powerful and influential industry.

Sincerely,



Julia Hood
